TRMM-LBA Lightning Instrument Package (LIP)

Entry ID: trmlbalip

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The ER-2 Lightning Instrument Package (LIP) allows the vector
components of the electric field (i.e, Ex,Ey, Ez ) to be readily
obtained, and thus, greatly improves our knowledge of the electrical
structure of storms overflown. The field mills measure the components
of the electric field over a wide dynamic range extending from fair
